JUST AS LONG AS I GOT MY SUIT & TIE





Blazer - Allsaints sale / T-shirt - Allsaints / Jeans - Zara / Boots - Kurt Geiger / Necklace - Topshop


The weather has been a bit hit and miss recently, so whenever I have ventured out the house I have had to prepare for every eventuality, hence the blazer. It's the perfect lightweight layer and is made of a silky fabric so it actually stays quite cool but is still perfect if the heavens decide to suddenly open. Plus, this outfit just makes you want to sing JT's 'suit and tie' song so what's not to love!

I have also had a rather busy week at work so I have really enjoyed just relaxing this weekend and taking a bit of 'me' time, in addition, to trying my best to run above 5k as my 10k charity run is fast approaching and 5k just seems to be my runners wall. Although I am happy to let you know I have hit 6k, aiming for 7 by the end of next week.

DENIM IS A WAY OF LIFE

Whistles dress, french connection shoes, casual sunny day look


 With the weather in London hitting 25 degrees most days this dress is perfect for keeping you cool and hides any unwanted food babies caused by too much ice cream and picnics in the park.  The sandals were also bought in the French Connection sale, they were comfy from the moment they touched my feet and go perfectly with dresses, skirts and jeans.


Dress - Whistles
Sandals - French Connection
Necklace - Italian Boutique

This weekend with the weather being so nice I have had a much needed catch up in the sun with friends and family. Drank a bit too much vino on Friday in an amazing local bar where the band did some great covers of Ed Sheeran (felt like I was almost at a concert) and my Brother came down to stay who I haven't seen in over a month. So all in all, my weekend has been full of embracing denim, enjoying friendships and having fun in the British weather.

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend.

WHISTLE (WHILE YOU WORK IT)

Whistles Leather Pumps
Grey Knit Cut Out Jumper - Urban Outfitters
Jeans - Topshop
Pumps - Whistles

For the past 21 days I have been taking part in the bikini body challenge which has taken social media by storm on Facebook, run by Michael Gray a personal trainer he has kindly released 3 weeks of diet plans and on a daily basis releases 15-20 mins of exercises you should do. I have found the whole experience really great, the sense of community and support on the group has been amazing. I didn't really have a lot of weight I wanted to lose but since starting work in an Office I have become a lot less active and so have put on a bit of weight consequently. So my main goal was to tone and lose a couple of inches off my waist. I am happy to say I have lost 3 pounds and 1.5 inches off my waist :). If any one wants to try it out you can find it here.

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend.
